Turkeys are taking revenge for the horrendous treatment by Agribusiness. Most ground turkey tested by Consumer Reports was contaminated with drug-resistant bacteria. But if you want to solve the problem, you'll need to ignore their advice. There's no solution within a system that treats food as nothing but a commodity.
Salt reduction is a third rail of medicine. There is simply too much money to be made on blood pressure drugs, and Big Pharma must not be crossed. But the reality is that reducing salt intake provides no benefit for heart health. Nonetheless, the official stance doesn't change.
Organic food isn't cheap, and the real thing never will be. The concept of mass-produced organics is fraudulent. It runs counter to both the ethos & reality.

Permitting corporations to genetically modify, synthetically process and artificially preserve substances for you to ingest, and then calling it "food" insults our health and well-being. The claim that starving masses must be given cheap alternatives is a fabrication to let them trod upon our garden.

GMOs aren't the only nasty thing from Agribusiness. Breeding for mass production instead of taste and nutrition has cost us. Most produce in supermarkets has flavor worth the trouble of eating, and the lack of nutrition is destroying health.
If you don't want to end up popping pills and feeling miserable, then it's time to stop reading labels and start eating natural foods. The labels lie! They hide the truth. Real food doesn't come from boxes. It comes from fields.
Trans fat isn't crooked—and that's the problem. Though it's chemically identical to natural fats, it doesn't bend. Here's a clear and simple explanation of why, what it means, and why trans fats are so dangerous.

Tweet Ancel Keys is generally considered the father of the cholesterol theory. For this, he should be shamed. Here’s a humorous explanation of how he produced fake research, for which he received great acclaim. Return to There Is Only One Type of Cholesterol: Here’s Proof.
